Quirky Retreats - The Old Stable

Comfortable/clean house

Couldn’t use any of systems. Wi-Fi service issue. Unresolved during our stay. TVs/music/Wi-Fi/snug Really disappointed. Was a small gathering for a 40th birthday and couldn’t play any music or screen a video made for occasion. Nothing on TV would work as all needed the internet connection. Perhaps a service provider issue, not directly the owner but effected our stay. Also very strong smell on entering. Believe it’s the wood/varnish?

Having 3 bedrooms and 3 en-suites Being able to take pets Location was good and picturesque next to river with good coffee house, chippy, pub and ice cream shop right near The Barn

Didn’t worry us but master suite has no windows except from en-suite so was dark as we like natural light

Very comfy beds. Big rooms. Very helpful staff to get repairs done.

Leaking shower. Broken door lock on patio door. Couldn't use large outdoor bin as it was locked. Smell of oil, very strong. Missing lights in upstairs bathroom. Very dimly lit.

Loved the property and the location. Clean and very comfortable.

The size and space. Location was amazing but didn’t want to leave. Log burner and big family room for all family to relax. Rooms were huge and had its own bar down stairs

Location was excellent on relation to local amenities which included several coffee shops/takeaways/local spar shop and train station around 5 mins walk. Also lots of good walks locally.

The area directly surrounding the building wasn’t great, a little scruffy with loads of dumpster bins lined up and the strong smell of fuel in the house (I think perhaps it’s oil fueled heating as could only think that’s what the strong smell was) it was quite overpowering. Showers not very hot or powerful and found it very dark, the lighting was quite dim in all of the rooms.

Lovely vibe throughout, very homely

Just needs a slightly higher chair for more elderly visitors

Probably one of the best places I have stayed, absolutely phenomenal. Can't fault anything. The barn is furnished to a very high standard we will definitely be returning!

Nothing

Everything’s including

Poor water and heater service

Beautifully aesthetic property. Lots of character and quirks. Very homely atmosphere.
